One should recite a special prayer before going to sleep. This booklet provides all prayers one should say before going to sleep.

Birkhot Hashahar are a series of blessings that are recited at the beginning of Jewish morning services. The blessings represent thanks to G-d for a renewal of the day. The order of the blessings is not defined by Halakha and may vary in a Siddur, but it is generally based on the order of activities customary upon arising. The purpose of all the blessings we say is to intensify our awareness of Hashem's presence in every aspect of our lives. When saying "Blessed are You," we therefore visualize in our mind as if we are actually speaking directly to the Infinite One. Clearly, the words "Blessed are You" indicate this. This book is geared for individuals who need to understand the text from Hebrew to English and pronouncing Hebrew words. The utilization of this booklet enables any person who does not understand Hebrew the proper concentration and meaning when they are praying. With the usage of this booklet hopefully people will be more successful in having their prayers answered. The text was developed in a way to produce a rhythmic flow, while allowing the reader to pronounce each letter, word and vowel with great ease in your native language.
